Adventurous Kate How To Start A Travel Blog

Moving beyond planned itineraries, off the paved roads, and onto unchartered territory when traveling brings the most unique of experiences. Whether summiting a peak, navigating a rapid, or digging deep on a mountain bike ride into a remote valley, the extra push required of adventure travel is sometimes all that is needed to create a core travel memory.

Heli-Hiking the Canadian Rockies

What do heli-ski companies do in the summer? Heli-hiking, of course. CMH Heli-Skiing and Summer Adventures claims the title of having "invented heli hiking over 40 years ago" and continues to offer guests exclusive access to the remote peaks, meadows, and glaciers in the most stunning parts of British Columbia from late June to late August. Each hiking group has its own guide and uses a CMH helicopter to move to three or four different areas per day. cmhheli.com

Volcanoes Safari's Mt. Gahinga Lodge is located a short walk away from Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, a unique place where both golden monkeys and mountain gorillas live together, hence its tagline "Were Gold Meets Silver." Led by a Ugandan Wildlife Authority ranger, prepare for a challenging hike into primary forest where beautiful golden monkeys, with their trademark golden orange backs, feast on bamboo shoots, and vault between the treetops. volcanoessafaris.com

Mountain Biking in Slovenia

Just half the size of Switzerland, Slovenia is the only country in Europe where the Alps, Mediterranean, and Pannonian Plain meet. While just as exciting to travel to in winter, one glance at Slovenia's turquoise blue mountain streams and lakes may convince you that summer is, indeed, the season to go. On my next trip to Slovenia, you'll find me joining SloTrips Unique Adventures on a counterclockwise biking circumnavigation of the Julian Alps and Triglav National Park, passing the ski town of Kranjska Gora and climbing the stunning Vrsic Pass before a long descent into the storied Soca Valley. slovenia-trips.com

The Royal Gorge is a deep and narrow canyon of the Arkansas River, located west of Cañon City, Colorado. Also known as the Grand Canyon of the Arkansas, The Royal Gorge offers some of the best whitewater adventure in the state and is peppered with exciting class III, IV, and V rapids, including Sunshine, Sledgehammer, and Boat Eater. These rapids are steep, technical, and double the gradient of other canyons along the Arkansas. arkansasriveroutfitters.org

One of Australia's last frontiers, The Kimberley, in the northwestern region of Australia, is a land of remote and spectacular scenery made up of a large central sandstone range and an extensive limestone range formed from an ancient barrier reef. One of the most untouched corners of The Kimberley is El Questro, 700,000 acres of vast, mostly unexplored terrain of mountains, tidal flats, rainforests, natural hot springs, gorges, and spectacular waterfalls. westernaustralia.com

Kayaking Chiloé Island

A remote and mystical island off the southwestern coast of Chile, exploring Chiloé is an adventure in itself. While staying at Tierra Chiloé, I launched a kayak from the Rilán peninsula, 10 miles from Chiloé's capitol city of Castro. Here you will navigate the archipelago's channels and fjords, paddling alongside penguins and dolphins, and past towns of palafitos — homes mounted on stilts above water — which populate the shoreline. The island also has a large collection of colorful, colonial-era wooden churches, 16 of which are designated UNESCO World Heritage sites, all crafted as upside down ships, thanks to the seafaring builders of the time. tierrahotels.com

Ski or Hike Hut to Hut in the Italian Dolomites

Winter scenics with cross-country skiers in the Dolomites (European Alps, Alto Adige, Italy).

Explore the Italian Alps in the most Italian way possible – days hiking its beautiful mountains with the reward of staying in mountain huts serving the best in food and wine at the end of each day. With guides from Dolomite Mountains, these multi-day ski or hiking adventures in the Cortina d'Ampezzo region include staying in these legendary rifugi, many of which are not accessible by car. My favorite among these is Rifugio Fuciade, which is not only in a beautiful setting but has an incredible wine cellar. dolomitemountains.com
